TH Bold by Tommy Hilfiger

Smells like pure orange with a hint of other citrus, but nothing else. The scent is rich for hot days, but it fades almost immediately after you apply it. What a pity.

What a pity it’s discontinued and hard to find here. It’s citrusy and refreshing, bringing back the best memories of my first imported perfumes. Ideal for the office.

Fresh, light, and pleasant. Don’t expect much projection because it’s very short-lived. The citrus always dominates and makes you feel good. After half an hour, they fade a bit to let in the lavender and some soft flowers that adorn the fragrance beautifully. I got the original 2015 batch and it lasts over 8 hours on skin.

A fresh and pleasant fragrance where orange and creamy white flowers take center stage. The dry-down is appealing, featuring very sophisticated sandalwood and vetiver. It feels very masculine, versatile, and offers acceptable performance for its price range. It conveys energy and optimism. Very good.

It’s such a strong citrus bomb that you can’t smell the other notes. It’s just grapefruit, bergamot, and orange. At the end, you feel a flower; for me, it’s neroli. It could easily be unisex. It’s a linear, unpretentious perfume, easy to use, common, and nothing stands out. If you find it at a good price, it’s a good option for daily wear.

Tuesday, April 9, 2019, from Santo Domingo. SMELLS GOOD, BUT??? PURE CITRUS! The note that stands out most in TH Bold by Tommy Hilfiger is grapefruit, making citrus the protagonist. It didn’t fully satisfy me; I used it and it was just another one. Suitable for daily wear in summer or extreme heat. You get a sweet freshness thanks to the citrus. This perfume should have been called just Citrus Tommy Hilfiger. Scent 7/10, longevity 7/10, sillage 7/10, projection 8/10.

TH Bold isn’t trying to revolutionize anything, but it does its job: it’s pleasant and energetic. I agree with Darkbeat and facu22—it’s the perfect cologne post-workout or after the pool, summery, fresh, clean, and fairly linear. The longevity is weak, but that’s not a problem because it doesn’t try to deceive; it’s cheap and meant for a short wear. It’s not original, but as a synthetic citrus, it has its point, feeling invigorating and dynamic. Right out of the bottle, it smells like lime, one of the few citrus notes that doesn’t use xD, and last summer someone even asked if I was wearing Puig Azur xD. The best part of Bold is Nadal. Great, Nadal! 6.5/10

Yesterday my brother-in-law let me try out his gift, with his permission, hehe. At first, the opening is citrusy, slightly acidic, and gives a bit of a nose tickle, but then it softens into a fresh floral veil where jasmine and a touch of lavender stand out over a soft woody base. It’s very linear, almost the same throughout except for the more intense opening; afterwards, it’s effervescent cardamom with flowers and wood. Perfect for summer—fresh and sparkling, though nothing groundbreaking. It’s very similar to the classic ‘Heno de Pravia’ shower gel, but more potent, natural, and higher quality. Lasts about 5 or 6 hours with a low sillage. If you like this style, give it a try, but don’t expect anything revolutionary.

It’s like the expensive version of a body mist. It doesn’t smell bad, but it has nothing special about it; it’s very simple and lacks any novelty.

Rich fragrance but nothing more. It’s like bathing in orange and tangerine. After 8 hours, I can still smell it close to my skin with a noticeable trail. The price-to-quality ratio is excellent; it smells clean and fresh and makes you feel good. I think it lasts about 10 hours on me.

What a curious scent! I tried it in-store before seeing the notes, and it hit me like opening a mandarin or squeezing its juice; then I noticed a white flower, which turned out to be jasmine and neroli. The cardamom adds a soft, powdery touch. I need to wear it more to be sure, but yes, it’s a citrus explosion—not very masculine, more unisex, and very summery.
